Boat Anchoring 101: How to use snubbers and anchor buoys | Ep. 155

Come learn how to improve your anchoring skills by using a snubber and an anchor buoy. We will walk through a hands-on demonstration of attaching a snubber to your anchor chain using a soft shackle. We will cover the various sizes of snubbers you should have onboard. And finally, we will discuss the benefits of using an anchor (or trip line) buoy. The anchor buoy we demonstrate on the water includes an added feature to keep it right above your anchor regardless of tidal changes. We explain how to safely deploy and retrieve your anchor buoy as well. If you are curious about other anchoring techniques, be sure to check out the other videos in our ‘Boat Anchoring 101’ playlist, as well as our many other how to videos on such topics as varnishing, engine maintenance and boating safety. We also regularly publish sailing adventure videos from onboard our Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 440 ‘Sea Rose’ as we complete our sixth year of sailing throughout Europe and the Mediterranean. Lastly, check out our blog site - http://www.lifefourpointzero.com. We periodically post written stories of our sailing adventures on our blog.
